Configure alert recipients

NineData can send alert notifications to recipient groups or webhooks. Use recipient groups for user-based notifications, and use webhooks to send alerts to collaboration tools such as DingTalk, Lark (Feishu), or WeChat Work.

Before you begin

Prepare the users, email addresses, phone numbers, or webhook endpoints that should receive alert notifications.

Create an alert recipient group

  1. Sign in to the NineData Console.

  2. Open Alert > Receiver.

  3. On the Receiver Group tab, click Create Group.

  4. On the Create Group page, configure the settings in the table.

    Parameter
    Description
    NameEnter a recipient group name. Use a clear name for later search and management. Up to 24 characters are supported.
    Add UsersClick the field under Add Users to show users in the current organization. Select the users to add, or enter part of a user name to search.
  5. Click Create Group.

    tip

    NineData provides a default recipient group named Default Recipient Group. To add recipients to an existing group, click Edit in the Actions column for that group. Use the same settings described in the table above.

Create a webhook
